My recent presentation to the Algarve History Association covered the Industries of the Algarve, ranging from fisheries to salt, from fig production to golf and to canning. Time was too short to cover everything, and during question time, a member raised the question of agriculture and the consumption of water by avocado plantations.
Have you ever wondered how you could lower your energy bills and help the planet at the same time? Well, incorporating solar techs into your home might just be the answer you're looking for.
In a time when sustainability is taking the lead, businesses are on the lookout for creative ways to cut their carbon footprint and cost hand in hand.
In the world of renewable energy, biomass boilers stand out as an eco-friendly and cost-effective heating solution. These boilers harness the power of organic materials such as wood pellets, chips, or agricultural waste to generate heat and hot water.
€10 million funding hinges on renting 6 hectares with access to sea within a radius of 1 to 5 kms. A world-first solution that promises not only to bring water to the Algarve but transform the region into a ‘new European destination for science’, is in an 11th hour scramble for ‘the right location’.
As the world grapples with climate change and the growing need for sustainable energy sources, solar panels have emerged as a beacon of hope. These renewable energy systems harness the power of the sun to generate electricity, providing a clean and eco-friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels.
In the face of a burgeoning global population and mounting environmental concerns, modern agriculture has faced increasing scrutiny for its impact on the planet. Conventional farming practices, while successful in boosting food production, have inadvertently contributed to the degradation of natural ecosystems and the loss of biodiversity.
Vila Vita Parc, one of the Algarve's leading luxury destinations, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded the prestigious Green Key Certificate, a recognition of the resort's commitment to environmental and social responsibility, which highlights the sustainable operations carried out by the resort as a standard of excellence in the hospitality industry.
